Is love truly the same?

Monday 16th of may 2022.

I wrote once about something I saw online…

A guy who was heartbroken because his girlfriend cheated on him so he decided to give a visual representation of how he felt what she has done to him meant.

He asked her to take a ceramic plate, which she did. Told her to throw the plate on the floor. She did and immediately the plate broke into a several piece. He then took the plate and glued each piece back. And surprisingly enough the plate could be used for eating seeing as he glued it so well.

He then said to her “this plate is glued and can function again but you can see that something is different about it. Those lines from where I glued the pieces together are still very much visible. And it would be so forever”.

The point I'm attempting to make with the short narrative above is whether or not love remains the same when things happen to individuals in love. Do couples that have a falling out because of particular situations come back stronger or better? Or they simply revert to their previous state.

Time.

Time is a very big factor. There is a saying “you can never know for sure if you love a person for sure unless you live with them a week or travel with them to foreign destination”.

Most people tell themselves that with time they will eventually forget the past and all will be great again. And honestly, it probably always is like that but what if it’s not, is that okay too?.

Here is something totally unrelated, do you find it easy to not miss your spouse or partner when you spend too much time with them?(for those of us in a relationship not for the single Pringles like me on here hehehe). I am asking because the term “love” has evolved over the years. It is not what it use to be.

In the past people married for love and it was okay if they didn’t have enough money love was all that matter but now that is not mostly the case you hear people tell you things like “Marry him because he is financially capable with time you would fall in love with him”. ( and as much as it is not a bad thing to marry a person who you feel protected with in every way we have to agree that it wasn’t always like this in the past)— I guess we are woke now !!

In the past monogamy meant one man for one woman or one woman for one man but now it just simply means one man for one woman at a time or one woman for one man at a particular time meaning it is can change at any time.

It used to be “till death do us part” now it is more of “till love dies”Is love even reliable. I just feel like I would loose my sh**t if I woke up and a person I am so much in love with has fallen out of love with me.

I hate it sometimes when people say heartbreak is a journey that we must go through(it might be true or might just be something people say) be that as it may I don’t like to think it is a journey Because the honest truth is heartbreak is heartbreak. It is just pure, undiluted mountain of pains and hurting. So let’s not paint it like it is some ingredients or life’s way or building us ( and I know what you are thinking just let me be in my feelings right now 😂😂).

what I think ?

Love is truly a drug and once you get hooked you become addicted but if something happens that changes your life and hurts you badly you can cut yourself away from that “drug”. Don’t get me wrong it would be hard and scary. It will take time and sometimes you would want to wish that things were different but I guess what they say is real “time will tell and life would happen” and you would move on.

Some people are lucky they find their one true love early and that’s for life. Others? Well it takes them a life time to find their one true love. Either ways love freely, love with all your heart because what other options do you have. Hehehe.
